JOHN EDWARDS – A short remembrance
It was with great sadness that I heard of John’s death in March. He was a distinguished “character” in the Dark Peak Fell Runners as evident by the soubriquets he was given, Gentleman John, Squire Read more
The fourth race of the 2013 series was Orrel Snail - Lots to report...
1) Eoin nearly doubled his score from the last race!
2) It was a close call from the trig to the finish with a direct line (Simon and Dave) versus a long way round track (Ian W, Ian C, Keith and me) with the long way round route winning on this occasion. If it hadn't been such a tricky course newcomer Dave Hunt would have probably won though!
3) Heather and Claire were just arriving as we all ran off up the road but they ran round together after us with Claire proudly navigating!
4) And finally ..... The Leader Board !! I have altered the times from Race 3 after Simon Dixon contested his time but it has meant that Keith is literally hanging onto the top spot!
Not long to wait though Keith ... next week (June 17th) is Birchin Surprise !!
